Volatile Losses from Aged Field Sediments

Abstract

The purpose of this technical note is to describes laboratory investigations conducted to obtain flux data from contaminated aged field sediments and a laboratory spiked sediment for the emission of volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) from sediment exposed to the atmosphere. These data are being used to develop and validate predictive volatile emissions models. Laboratory experimental techniques and results obtained are presented.
